Her eyes say yes. n/t benz380 Jan 2015 #1

I think the real issue is - IMO, of course - people who want Warren to run djean111 Jan 2015 #2

I am a Bernie person, but would go with Liz or Hillary...per my other post here though randys1 Jan 2015 #4

She would be too old in 8 years. Beacool Jan 2015 #7

That is what I thought...I think she makes a big mistake not running, even if she randys1 Jan 2015 #11

I get the feeling that she honestly has no interest in running. Beacool Jan 2015 #13

It takes tremendous fortitude... Cosmic Kitten Jan 2015 #21

Fortunately, that's not the opinion of the majority of Democrats. Beacool Jan 2015 #28

The majority of Democrats LOL Cosmic Kitten Jan 2015 #61

Right! The handful of people responding to a DU post are MUCH more representative... brooklynite Jan 2015 #72

Where did that come from? Cosmic Kitten Jan 2015 #74

Just like the Presidential Polls in 2012 mistakenly indicated that Obama would win... brooklynite Jan 2015 #77

What exactly are you espousing? Cosmic Kitten Jan 2015 #81

You're claiming HILLARY doesn't have the fire in the geek tragedy Jan 2015 #104

In other words, Elizabeth Warren is too honest and humble to run. JDPriestly Jan 2015 #52

You expressed very well what I've been feeling. If enough Americans Cal33 Jan 2015 #84

She is HONEST, but what's with the "humble" stuff? MADem Jan 2015 #89

Humble can mean poor. But I meant it to mean a person who has humility. JDPriestly Jan 2015 #93

I don't think she has an excess of humility, frankly. MADem Jan 2015 #96

Compared to Hillary, she is humble. JDPriestly Jan 2015 #99

Or, she never asked... brooklynite Jan 2015 #19

could Liz get the same amount of money that Hillary could? Cosmic Kitten Jan 2015 #23

Regardless of the source of money, either they can raise enough to win or they cant randys1 Jan 2015 #38

It's about being BEHOLDEN to donors Cosmic Kitten Jan 2015 #41
